Contemporary Playful Meets Retro-Chic

Contemporary Playful Meets Retro-Chic

Curves and ovals create a light-hearted ambiance in the open concept living/dining room - even the metallic fireplace surround has a sassy curve as it bends toward the ceiling. Oval accents on the draperies echo the shape of standing and hanging lamps and give a visual counterpoint to the white-on-grey horizontal stripes along the living room walls. Be sure to check out the dining area where the table picks up the same wood as the flooring, then wraps itself in a single surface up the wall where a punched out pothole creates the illusion of being a piece of hanging artwork.

The kitchen, sleek and crisp, features a mix of white, natural wood, and frosted glass for the cabinetry plus the gleam of entertainment-sized stainless steel appliances. An eating bar is great for "get me going quick" breakfasts or platters of appies when entertaining.

This master bedroom is all about texture. The fuzzy faux-fur bedspread sends a hard to resist invitation: I'm soft, I'm warm, touch me. To one side, a fluffy scatter rug continues the theme while providing a soft, warm on the toes surface for cool mornings. Delicate brushed chrome standing lamps offset thick, rich leather cushions and bedside chair decked out in black. At the head of the bed, the simplicity of four single blossoms becomes a visual focal point drawing the eye up toward the ceiling and tying separate elements together.
